Long Time No See

Wow it has been quiet a while since I last updated this blog. So much has been going on I don't know where to start...

The kids are getting bigger and bigger everyday and I am amazed by them.

Raymond is a 1st grader and doing wonderfully. He loves to go to school and has gotten great grades in the first two quarters.

Gabriel is 4 now, He has been seeing a GI specialist since sept(once a month) and the issues are slowly resolving themselves. He now weighs 40lbs and is 41 inches tall.

Brendan turned 1 in Nov..he is now 17 months old and finally is starting to talk his first words were All Done..He knows the sign for that but finally said the words yesterday, though he still may need some speech threapy to help him since he is a little delayed in that department, but other than that he is growing very well..his last appointment he weighed 30lbs and was 33 inches tall. He just got over another ear infection as well.

We got the kids pictures done and I will be picking them up this week.

I think those things are the highlights,,other than all of us being sick so much this past winter..

I need to start writing more in this but, again my kids are number 1..I'll be back to post picture when they come in.

Well..Back to School. Fight with Sister and Brendan is 10 months old

Well my sister and I are fighting something fierce these past few days and it really starting to grate on me. Some of her comments are completely provoked and completely unnecessary....But that is a whole other story..on to the good stuff.

Raymond is back in school and having a great time..Here are a few pictures from his 1st Day(8/27)









Brendan is 10 months old now here are a few pictures of him...

Annnd We're Back!

From a wild week. Many Many crazy things happened the biggest was Tropical Storm Fay which just dumped a ton of rain on us from Tuesday until Friday. So most of the vacation was a wash, though we still had fun...Well lets say the kiddos had fun. I will update more when I get settled in.
